THERMOSTATTED KINECTIC THEORY APPROACH, THE: THEORY, INVERSE PROBLEMS, AND MODELS

This monograph is devoted to the recently developed thermostatted kinetic theory and its application to the modeling of complex systems in a variety of fields. In the first part, the frameworks of the theory, which are obtained by coupling the kinetic theory for active particles with the thermostats coming from non-equilibrium statistical mechanics (Gaussian isokinetic thermostat), are presented. Among the theoretical results discussed are existence and uniqueness of the solution of the dif...
